Charles Nighbor Walnut Creek, CA USA PS Excert from site, "Deanna and I traveled self-contained by bike in Italy for two weeks in Sept-Oct 2007. We started in Florence, and rode through Castellina in Chianti, San Gemignano, Volterra, Massa Marittima, Civitella Marittima, Sienna, Gaiole in Chianti, where we rode in L'Eroica, then to Mte Ste Michelle, and back to Florence. A great trip with perfect weather, challenging riding, wonderful accommodations, delicious food and wine, and new experiences around every turn. Tuscany has the most challenging hills we have ridden anywhere, but we were geared for it. We can't wait to go back!'' RF
